Thanks for the topic Tom. I use the FZ200 and never shoot RAW, for two main reasons.

1. iPhoto doesn't recognise RAW and I use iPhoto a lot.

2. I shoot in bursts most of the time and RAW slows down (a lot) the recovery time for the camera before you can start using it again. Usually, with JPEG, I can start shooting again immmediately, even if the buffer hasn't cleared the first lot of image processing.
